I have a prairie-shaped
hole in my heart
I could not tell you
its shape
its shape
or size
only that it spans
from horizon
to
horizon
And in between it's
blue

About Me
- Lori
- Ontario, Canada
- I am an aspiring Christian poet and writer. I have two amazing and terrifying children who have taught me more in the short time they have blessed my life than my many years of schooling. I am back to teaching full-time, but with a twist. I now teach online. It has been an interesting experience so far, but I am loving it! Ask me about it sometime.

its dimensions are the length of a prairie night, traced by the trails of falling stars
the instant your breath turns to crystal in the crackling cold of a winter morning
pangs fading to grey ghosts like the towns
Acme7 -- you have captured it well! Beautiful!
just an echo of your delineated melancholy (you lived there longer than i) -- the last line touched off ripples in my boyhood memories
There is nothing like a prarie sky. I love it blue but the sunset is even more amazing.
